Your flight, my heart's laughter - an art journal spread

Moikka! It's the last Friday of June and that means last video of June. Last week I had a break because of the Midsummer, but this week I'm back on track with the posts. 

This time I made an art journal spread, as you can see. The main elements in the spread are something I've received in ATC swaps. I added some other details here and there, too, but the vintage ephemera is all received. You can see the process video for this spread here (link) on my YouTube channel.

I made the spread before I then googled this princess. I thought her living a sheltered life, like a gilded cage and that she liked to watch the birds in the palace yard, longing to be as free. Thus I made the journaling "Your flight, my heart's laughter". If you want to know the historical facts about her, you can read about her here (link) in Wikipedia page.

Thank you for stopping by today! Wishing you a beautiful Friday and lovely weekend!
